Tancredo, one of four Republicans vying to challenge Democratic Gov. John Hickenlooper next year, finished second to Hickenlooper in the 2010 gubernatorial race after mounting a late run as a third party candidate.

Secretary of State Scott Gessler, who filed late Tuesday afternoon, came in second among the GOP gubernatorial hopefuls, posting $114,000 in contributions during the quarter despite officially launching his campaign just a few weeks earlier.

State Sen. Greg Brophy, R-Wray, told FOX31 Denver Tuesday afternoon that his campaign raised just over $100,000 in the quarter.

Brophy said he spent much of August farming but had a solid month raising money in September. He also had to cancel his annual watermelon shoot, which would have served as a fundraiser for his campaign.

Brophy’s campaign report, filed later in the day, showed $92,471 in monetary contributions; that, combined with another $9,667 in non-monetized contributions, does put Brophy just over the $100,000 mark.

Former Senate Minority Leader Mike Kopp doesn’t have to file a financial report until January because he just launched his campaign last week.

Hickenlooper’s campaign told FOX31 Denver Tuesday afternoon that it raised $224,236 in the third quarter, bringing its total cash on hand to $733,772.
